Jonah 2:8 in Context — Jonah 2
6 Les eaux m’ont couvert jusqu’à m’ôter la vie, L’abîme m’a enveloppé, Les roseaux ont entouré ma tête.
7 Je suis descendu jusqu’aux racines des montagnes, Les barres de la terre m’enfermaient pour toujours; Mais tu m’as fait remonter vivant de la fosse, Éternel, mon Dieu!
8 Quand mon âme était abattue au-dedans de moi, Je me suis souvenu de l’Éternel, Et ma prière est parvenue jusqu’à toi, Dans ton saint temple.
9 Ceux qui s’attachent à de vaines idoles Éloignent d’eux la miséricorde.
10 Pour moi, je t’offrirai des sacrifices avec un cri d’actions de grâces, J’accomplirai les vœux que j’ai faits: Le salut vient de l’Éternel.
